How reassuring to know that our president will not come down with malaria.

So now we're going to start opening things. I predict this will bring on more virus similar to when it first appeared in March and we'll be back to square one & another few months of worrying about our health.

Anyone else have this feeling about the virus? I believe God is wiping out all of humanity and He is going to start all over again with a new population of humans.

More bad news. The virus is returning this winter even stronger than what we now have. We need a speed up on the vaccine for this. Eighteen months is far too long to wait for a solution.

It's hard to believe that Howie Finkel, ring announcer for the WWE at Madison Square Garden has passed away. We worked together in radio at Hamden Ct in 1972 (station WCDQ back then). He was a great guy and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

The only mask I own is a Halloween mask. I'll bet that will cause a stir in my local stores.
It's looking more and more like my prediction will come true and this country won't be functional until at least September 1.

I love sports but isn't MLB being stupid trying to run a season while the virus is still going full force?
With this lockdown I'm discovering how really bad television is.

It's looking more and more as though I might be right and this virus won't be exiting until at least September 1. I am so glad I have a wonderful house in which I can be a prisoner and a wonderful wife with whom I can spend my days.

I need to give someone a high five tomorrow. After all it's PALM Sunday.

Optimum will never admit it, but there's a free preview in the Bridgeport Ct system of HBO (beginning channel 301) & Cinemax (beginning channel 371) staring today & running through Monday March 16.
Milwaukee joins the list of cities who should push for a repeal of the second amendment.
Optimum will never tell you but today, tomorrow, and Sunday in the Bridgeport Ct system NBA League Pass is a free preview (channels 270-276), Optimum doesn't want you taking advantage of this because they can charge many bucks to subscribe to it.
Does anyone know if WPIX (New York) is going to carry any Mets or Yankees games this summer? I refuse to pay the exorbitant fees Altice charges for their MLB sports package. I know FOX will be televising a few Saturday games.

Sad anniversary day today. It was 13 years ago the New Haven (Ct) Coliseum was demolished. I spent many fun nights there as p.a. announcer for the city's professional hockey teams.

Optimum will never tell you, but those in Southern Connecticut receive Center Ice free now through January 9 (Bridgeport system channels 254-267).
OMG, we're down to the last 383 minutes of 2019 and I'm still sober.
